🕊️ Procissão da Burrinha – A Unique Holy Week Tradition in BragaOn April 16, Braga comes alive with one of its most symbolic and cherished Holy Week processions: the Procissão da Burrinha. Held on Holy Wednesday, this deeply traditional event reenacts biblical scenes, particularly the Flight into Egypt, where the Holy Family flees with a donkey — giving the procession its name, Burrinha (little donkey).
As the streets of Braga fill with devotion, historical characters, and religious imagery, locals and visitors alike are drawn into the powerful storytelling of this procession. The city’s ancient charm, illuminated by candlelight, creates a truly unforgettable atmosphere.
